About: Trusted Veteran • Farm-Raised Animal Lover • Dependable Dog Walker Growing up on a farm in North Dakota gave me hands-on experience caring for animals from an early age. As a dog owner and lifelong animal lover, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive interactions. My military background strengthened my reliability, attention to detail, and commitment to following instructions, ensuring every pet receives safe, dependable care. Whether it's an energetic walk, playtime, or providing companionship, I treat every dog as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being. I recently retired from the Army, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pets. I'm available on weekdays, evenings, and most weekends, allowing me to accommodate regular walks, drop-in visits, and last-minute requests whenever possible. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow each owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and potty breaks. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while respecting their individual personalities and comfort levels. I will provide regular updates with photos, and treat every home and pet with the same care and respect as my own.
About: “With over 15 years of dedicated pet care experience, I bring a deep passion for animals and professional expertise to every pet I care for. Certified in animal CPR and first aid, I’m fully equipped to handle emergencies with confidence and care. My background also includes specialized training in pet behavior and obedience, ensuring your furry friends receive not just love but the highest standard of care tailored to their needs. Your pets’ health, happiness, and safety are my top priorities!” “Our pet care schedule is designed to provide your furry friends with plenty of companionship and attention. Someone will be at our home the majority of the day, ensuring your pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. While there may be a brief absence of 2 to 3 hours, your pets will always have their needs met with a loving presence, regular feedings, playtime, and any required care. Their happiness and well-being are our top priorities!” “Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. With a securely fenced backyard, your furry friends will have a safe space to explore, play, and relax. As a pet owner myself, with two friendly dogs who love meeting new companions, I understand the importance of providing a trusting and nurturing environment. Your pets will feel right at home, surrounded by love, care, and plenty of supervised outdoor time. You can rest assured knowing they’re in a safe, secure, and welcoming space.”
“Claudia did a fantastic job for taking care of my cat Bobbie during my five weeks away from home. She showed up on time and fed and cared for the cat as scheduled. She took the cuttest pictures and filed a report every day. I have never been away from my cat for so long and was apprehensive about the change of routines but Bobbie was well-fed and cared for as if nothing has happened when I returned. Claudia is a sweetest person and very responsive and accommodating. I am sure her training as vet assistant is instrumental in helping Bobbie making the adjustment. I cannot thank her enough and will definitely ask for her next time I am away.”

About: I currently work at a pet vaccination clinic, where I’m around dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and temperaments on a regular basis. This experience has taught me how to be comfortable and patient with all types of pets, from energetic pups/cats to shy or nervous and everything in between. I’ve also pet-sat for dogs and cats in the past and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care while you’re away. 💕 I’m available Monday through Friday and may also be available on some Saturdays and Sundays. Since I work weekends at my job, my weekend schedule can vary, and I may be home until around 7pm. Weekend availability and accommodations can be discussed to find what works best for you and what best fits my weekend schedule! 🐾 I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs of my own, and they truly mean the world to me. Before moving away from home, I actually had five dogs, so I’ve always been surrounded by lots of furry personalities, love, and companionship! When I am caring for your pets, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep up with their normal routines, provide fresh food and water, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they get all the love and care they deserve. 🐾💕 I know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies with someone else, so my goal is to give you peace of mind while giving your pets a fun, loving experience! 🐶🐱✨

“Marcela is such a wonderful sitter, our dog is a very nervous dog and every time Marcela just works her magic with her. While we’re away she sends pictures and notes on how Sadie has done, which I love! We will always use her she just does such a great job.”
“Jackie is awesome! She is extremely caring and was very responsive. Our dog is very shy and anxious, but Jackie instantly earned her trust. 10/10 would recommend Jackie!”

“Laia was a wonderful cat sitter! She took great care of our shy kitty who warmed up to her right away. She was even able to pick her up and brush her which other cat sitters haven’t been able to do. Great communication too. We will definitely book again!”

About: For over 24 years, our dogs have been more than pets — they’ve been family. We’ve cared for two beloved dogs, including one with special needs and epilepsy, which gave us firsthand experience administering daily medication and responding calmly during emergency situations. We understand the patience, attention, and love that special-needs pets require because we’ve lived it ourselves. We know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your animal, and that’s why we care for every dog as if they were our own — with compassion, safety, and the same love we gave our own family pets. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine as it did for 22 years. During the summer, our teenage son is also home and enjoys helping with walks, playtime, and attention. Our daughter is also a huge helper and has a love for animals. Dogs receive consistent care, companionship, and plenty of love. We care for pets like they are part of the family. In our home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, walks, feeding on their normal schedule, and a safe, comfortable environment. We also have experience administering daily medications and caring for special-needs pets. In a client’s home, we follow their pet’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owners are away.

“Angela has been an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She is reliable, always punctual, and clearly genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. During every visit, she kept us updated with thoughtful messages and great pictures, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was so reassuring to see our cat happy, comfortable, and well cared for in her hands. We truly appreciated her professionalism, communication, and attention to detail. We would highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

About: ***I am independently insured through PetCare for greater peace of mind while you’re away*** ***Certified in cat and dog first aid*** I've recently gone through a career switch from caring for humans (I was a registered nurse) to caring for animals last year. However, I have loved and cared for several personal and friend’s pets, to include cats, dogs, guinea pigs, birds, and reptiles, throughout my entire life. I hold a strong passion for advocating and caring for all beings with empathy, patience, and understanding. Since my career switch, I have experienced pets who need extra attention due to daily medications, reactivity, older age, anxiety, and helping to instill training (I am not a certified trainer) the clients are already teaching their pet(s) during my walks and/or pet sits. Dog walking and pet sitting is my full time job now. Whether you need a midday walk or need someone to care for your pets while you escape on vacation, I’m available for either service throughout the week, weekend, and some holidays. While I do not provide care in my home, I do travel to your pets while you’re away. My approach to caring for animals is with a lot of patience and respect. I’m happy to take it slow for each animal that may be a bit timid at first. I have a lot of experience personally and professionally working with animals who are timid, reactive, etc. For new clients, I like to have a meet/greet to go over care instructions before the pet sitting/walking dates. This gives us the opportunity to ask questions and discuss further what you can expect while you’re away. My goal is to provide care the way your pet is used to. I send daily updates/pictures/video to give you the reassurance that your pet is being loved on just the way you would if you were there.
About: I always had dogs and cats growing up since I was 6. I've taken care of dogs (walking, feeding, bathing, and boarding) for my friends, neighbors and family for at least 6 years mostly for medium and small dogs when they are away/out of town. My husband and I work full time from home so my schedule is flexible to provide any services such as drop-in, walks, day care and boarding either on daily basis or on your special occasions. We have a dog (medium size) at home and we would like to ensure that we give lots of affection and playtime to your fur babies. We live in a townhouse surrounding by many traits and dog parks. My husband and I will give your fur babies lots of affection and playtime, we’ll do our best to make them feel at home! Our guest pups usually sleep alongside with our own dog in their individual beds, either in the basement or living room areas. Also, when providing drop-in visits, or dog walking services, I will not only be taking care of your dogs, but I will also take care of your home by taking a little extra time before I leave to ensure everything’s secure, and the dog has what they need before you come back.
“This was our first time having Rose pet sit our cat and she was absolutely wonderful. Rose was very communicative throughout the visit and sent pictures as requested. We'd have her again in a heart beat.”

About: I am not your average sitter, I have a lot of time on my hands to help you and your fur babies any time of day. I do not speak English but I am dedicated to work and help others around me. I am retired and have a lot of time on my hands. I am available every day of the week just let me know when you need me. I am willing to travel to you home and I will make sure to take care of your fur babies and your home as well.
“Jeana was amazing to work with and we felt confident our Emma was taken care of. She sent daily pictures and videos of our pet as well as pictures of a clean litter box and full food bowl. I would highly recommend her services and I plan to use her again ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Woodlawn is $20

Omigosh Rachel was the sweetest with our baby! She managed to tire that little monster out during their visit which is no simple feat 😂 Thank you for all the special plays, foods, and treats you provided for our sweet, crazy lil girl. This was Rachel’s first time visiting Lilly, and Lilly warmed right up to her (not guaranteed). Highly recommend Rachel!

Jennifer is a very caring, considerate, and reliable dog walker. Our dog loves her and greets her with lots of affection, which she returns with lots of love. Also, we feel like our dog is very safe in her hands. During one visit, a swarm of bees attacked our pup and Jennifer immediately notified us, called our veterinarian, and brought Berlin to an ER. She stayed with us until he was ready to go home (he’s fine, but needed Benadryl). You can trust your fur baby with Jennifer!

Daphne always goes above and beyond caring for my two cats during her visits. This time, she was an absolute saint. One of my cats needed two to three meds for an illness and was stressed out from the process. Daphne administered the meds twice a day, sent extra details, photos, and videos, and responded in real time to my questions. I am so grateful for the care she provided for my cats while I was away. She put my cats and me at ease during a stressful illness. I couldn’t imagine better care.

Andrea took such incredible care of our pups! She gave us great updates and made timely visits. Kept us well informed of everything going on with them, and communicated perfectly! Even went the extra mile and brought packages in for us while away! Highly recommend!

I booked Amillita for 2 check-in sessions at our house and she went above and beyond! This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous, but Amillita really made me feel like my pup, Dewey, would be in good hands during our meet and greet. And she definitely delivered! Dewey is a very energetic pup, so I was worried he’d be too much for her. But she played with him, fed him, and even walked him (even though he isn’t the best on the leash yet) 😅. She gave regular updates and sent lots of pictures. So very grateful for Amillita and would highly recommend her!

Claudia was amazing! This was our first time using Rover or any type of pet sitting service. At first I was slightly nervous as I knew our cats are somewhat shy and I didn’t exactly know what to expect. Claudia eased all my concerns! She was incredibly communicative leading up to her visits and our kitties loved her! Highly highly recommend and we won’t hesitate to book her again!

Leah was so incredibly kind to Ari and Sundance and we were so grateful for her help while we had an out of town trip. She was loving to them, very communicative, and even went out of the way to make sure that one of our pups didn’t jump around too much after eating his meal after I mentioned how we try to keep him settled. Her attentiveness to detail was so much appreciated!

I had a wonderful experience with McKenna! I was away traveling, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing my pets were being well cared for. She was dependable, attentive, and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. It was clear that my pets were comfortable and well taken care of while I was gone. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets. I will absolutely request her service again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodlawn is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 15,034 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodlawn. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodlawn. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
